@mega5531 not a good idea because most likely the battery is a lithium battery which will explode if you try it. but something you can do is put it in a deep freeze over night & then put it back into the laptop and let it charge. this should fix it. any more questions feel free to ask

@TheLordClem a dremel battery is do-able, but i would use a car charger with a start feature that puts a bunch of amps out, or you could use a car battery. as far as the + or -. i too have a similar dremel and if you look on the bottom of the tool it only uses two contacts so if you find out which ones they are on the battery you can then determine with a meter which is which, any more questions feel free to ask

@TheVidsbids2012 . i have had that happen to, basically you have a partially fried cell that wont take very much power. so you can try it again or the battery might be beyond help. any more questions feel free to ask

Great info-Only on my regular lincoln wire feed welder, the clamp is positive and the wire electrode is negative. This tip worked great once I stopped doing it bass ackwards-duh!

What exactly makes the battery explode? It seems like if you hold it on too long or the battery gets to hot, it will explode fairly easily.
